WWE house show results from the Raw brand's three weekend shows in Eastern Canada didn't reveal much for tonight's Raw or future storylines going to the Hell in a Cell PPV. WWE did not feature new match-ups that would have served as test-runs before putting a particular match-up on TV other than Legacy vs. Mark Henry & MVP. They mainly presented the same match-ups the live audience had seen on TV.

For the third straight weekend of regular WWE house shows, the main events were Randy Orton vs. John Cena. When Orton was champ before the Breaking Point PPV last Sunday, WWE used a DQ finish to keep the belt on Orton and eventually send the crowd home happy with Cena on top. With Cena now champ, Cena was booked to beat Orton clean and send the crowd home happy with Cena on top.

Triple H and Shawn Michaels were off the weekend line-ups. Michaels is on The Undertaker's schedule of not working a regular house show schedule while Hunter was in Las Vegas standing next to Floyd Mayweather. Legacy was still in the semi-main events this weekend, but they worked against Mark Henry and MVP instead of Triple H and a partner (or by himself).

The U.S. Title picture was centered on Kofi Kingston vs. The Miz on Friday, then Kofi vs. Miz vs. Jack Swagger on Saturday's two shows. WWE continued the trend of fitting as many mid-card acts into one U.S. Title situation. It wouldn't be surprising to see a three-way match announced for Hell in a Cell since they can't settle on a singles feud for Kofi.

Chavo Guerrero was booked in losses to Santino Marella and Evan Bourne on the weekend tour. ... Divas action on the tour was Gail Kim vs. Alicia Fox in re-matches from their #1 contender match on Raw last week. ... Developmental wrestler Alex Riley took losses to Chris Masters and Primo Colon over the weekend.
